Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

We particularly enjoy performing at the famous Kimpton Clock Tower in Manchester.
We have be hired to provide a full Gatsby experience for their awards ceremonies for large brands and corporate clients.
Their staging and historic room is gorgeous and we love the atmosphere we create for their awards, dinners and most importantly the AFTER-PARTY!


What's your favourite type of event?

I am a romantic so it has to be a WEDDING!
I adore watching the first dance and love to kick the evening off right after, and get the party started.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I am a professional vocalist and have been for over 15 years. I performed in the UK and abroad, as a soloist and touring various shows with bands and show teams. I then set up my live music company, producing and providing live bands to events and occasions, I also get to perform in some of them including AMJ too!


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Obviously Postmodern Jukebox are a huge influence to Almost Modern Jukebox (See what we did there?) and we love taking their arrangements and making them a little more our own too. From this band, I particularly love 'IT WASN'T ME' originally by Shaggy. Played in a swing style - is incredible and it always gets the crowd dancing and amazing that the song we are playing is in fact that tune!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Every event is different and some occasions especially weddings only allow for particular arrival times and a small window to set up.
Ideally - We have 90minutes to set up and sound check, we can and have done this quicker and will always do our best to get set up as efficiently as possible.
We provide 2 x 45min sets and can provide additional sets also.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, we love an al-fresco performance!
We do ask that there is a power supply near the performance area, a flat ground and either a shady spot or a canopy/gazebo style cover to protect from the sun.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

I always love to chat music with my couples and clients.
Lets talk and see what you want from your live music!


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Professional, Fun and energetic!
Most of our clients LOVE how we keep everyone on the dance-floor all night long!


Will our band play our 1st dance live?

Absolutely, we offer this within our fee, if the song is already one in our repertoire, which means it has been previously learned and played before. Although, some bands will charge a small amount to cover their time when learning and rehearsing a song that is not already in their repertoire.


What is a DJ Service?

A ‘DJ Service’ is a service you can book with most of our live bands and acts, where a pre-mixed playlist will be provided in-between live sets. You can send some song choices for us to compile, or send over complete playlists to be played through the band’s sound system. There are no song requests taken on the night, or announcements made. Your ‘DJ Services’ may be unmanned, but your party will be in full swing and all songs mix into the next automatically.

For a fully comprehensive DJ experience, you can book one of our professional, live DJ’s to come along with the band, where they will mix live on the night, take requests and make announcements.


After we have booked with you, what are the next steps?

You have confirmed your booking, your contract is signed and deposit invoice paid…

After that, you can relax for a while. We will schedule in a catch up around a month before the occasion so we can finalise timings and all details. Please get in touch at any time before that though, we are always here for you and any questions you may have.
